The flames were raging into the sky, and the grass mixed with kerosene burned extremely fast. There were even some soldiers outside the courtyard throwing thatch into the courtyard...
Although the walls of the courtyard are made of mud and stone, many of the houses in the courtyard are made of wooden structures. Therefore, when Zheng Ke's soldiers threw the lit thatch inside, it quickly ignited the fire in the courtyard.
The house was suddenly filled with fire...
Zheng Ke stood at the door of the small courtyard. In addition to some sword and shield men standing beside him, there were twenty or thirty archers behind him. They all had their bows half-opened and pointed at the door, ready to shoot arrows at any time.
There is only one entrance to the small courtyard of the post house. Zheng Ke guarded this place, which undoubtedly cut off Fei Qian's last escape route...
Zheng Ke didn't have to come, but he came in person anyway.
Zheng Ke originally didn't have much hatred for Fei Qian, but Fei Qian happened to meet the soldiers who Zheng Ke arranged to attack the transport convoy coming from Luoyang, ruining Zheng Ke's plan and causing the original attack on Fei Qian.
Gucheng Yidai's plan to intercept the convoy was interrupted.
Gucheng is too close to Luoyang, and many things cannot be carried out. At most, we can only use this small trick. If we really send a large number of soldiers, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Luoyang garrison, and because some soldiers were lost,
The main reason was that the military commander who led the team was lost, so we had to secretly let the remaining soldiers sneak back into the pass.
I was originally worried that Guo Pu would find out that I was missing a military commander, but I didn't expect that Guo Pu would actually lead his troops out of the customs without permission!
What a God-sent opportunity!
Originally, Zheng Ke planned to give Fei Qian a way out for Cai Yong's sake and let him leave Hangu Pass, but he didn't expect that Fei Qian was unwilling...
If you don't want to leave, then you can die here.
Compared to the entire Han Dynasty, what could a mere Heluofei clan be?
Now as long as Fei Qian dies and contacts you tomorrow to confirm, the west gate of Hangu Pass can be opened and people from outside the pass can come in...
Finally, another dead soldier was sent to report the military situation that Guo Pu sent out troops without permission, resulting in the fall of Hangu Pass due to unmanned garrison...
Perhaps it can also be said that Fei Qian colluded with the Yellow Turbans outside the pass and set fire inside the pass, causing civil strife...
Well, this may muddy the water a little more and buy more time. Anyway, it only takes one month for me to drag Dong Zhuo out at Hangu Pass. When the Kwantung Allied Forces arrive in Luoyang, it will be the day when the common men of Xiliang are beheaded.
Through the soaring flames, Zheng Ke seemed to see a scene in the near future where he would be receiving a reward in the main hall of the North Palace of Luoyang. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly.
At this time, a black shadow suddenly flashed at the door of the small courtyard, and it seemed that someone rushed out despite the fire. The archers behind Zheng Ke quickly fired arrows, and only heard a thumping sound. When the black shadow fell to the ground, everyone
It turned out that it was just a bench wrapped in a robe and thrown out...
Not long after, another black shadow flew out from the door, attracting another batch of arrows...
Chen Junhou, who was in front, saw this and shouted: "Archers shoot in turns! Don't fire in volley!"
At this time, Fei Qian and others gathered in the open space of the small courtyard. They could no longer stay in the house. Huang Chengzheng commanded a few soldiers to throw some wooden seats and other things in the courtyard out of the courtyard.
In an attempt to consume the archers' arrows, the other is to reduce some combustible materials in the yard.
Huang Cheng observed for a while and said to Fei Qian: "Fei Langjun, there are too many archers in front of us, so we can't charge hard! What should we do?!"
But not being able to get out means being burned alive!
Fei Qian seemed to feel the touch of death!
In a hurry, Fei Qian's mind was in chaos and he didn't know what to do.
Although the roofs are paved with Chinese tiles, the eaves and beams are all made of wood. Now some of the eaves have been ignited, and they are originally dry wood, so they burn very quickly!
At this speed, if it takes more than ten minutes, the beam will be burned!
After the beam is burned, even if you are not burned to death, you will be buried alive!
The temperature around us is getting higher and higher!
The air seems to be a lot thinner too!
The smoke begins to spread!
Just when Fei Qian and others were choked by the smoke and coughing, and felt extremely uncomfortable, they heard a cry of death coming from the backyard. It turned out that Huang Xu, who had been temporarily arranged in the backyard with his guards, realized something was wrong, rushed over, and took care of the people in the backyard.
The few soldiers who were throwing thatch in behind the small courtyard and around the wall were all killed, and they were about to move forward...
Huang Xu's shouting of killing seemed to stimulate Fei Qian, giving him a glimmer of hope! Fei Qian thought quickly, grabbed Huang Chengcheng and shouted: "Don't hit the front door or hit the courtyard wall!"
Although Fei Qian's words were confusing, Huang Cheng immediately understood what Fei Qian meant, screamed, and then pulled his neck and yelled several times in Jingxiang dialect.
Huang Xu, who was outside the courtyard wall, immediately replied in Jingxiang dialect.
With the reinforcements, Fei Qian's brain seemed to have finally started. He pointed at the water tank in the courtyard and shouted: "Dive into the water tank! Soak your whole body!"
Zheng Ke, who was outside the courtyard gate, grabbed the postmaster's collar angrily and shouted: "Aren't they all in the courtyard?! Why are there people outside the courtyard?!"
"My subordinates don't know either! They were still in the yard when I left!"
Zheng Ke angrily threw the postmaster to the ground and shouted loudly: "Marquis Chen, go and stop them!"
Chen Junhou took the order, said hello, and ran towards the backyard with some soldiers to meet Huang Xu and the others...
At this time, the sound of wheels came from the backyard, and then Huang Xu shouted a few times. Huang Cheng heard the words and immediately said: "Spread out and leave the back wall!"
There was a bang, and then another, and a crack suddenly appeared where the back room of the courtyard was connected to the courtyard wall. The tiles on the courtyard wall fell down, revealing a small gap!
Just when Huang Xu asked someone to pull the car away and collide again, Chen Junhou arrived with his people. Upon seeing this, he immediately shouted without saying a word and struck with a knife.
Huang Xu quickly led a few people to block it...
"Oops!" Huang Cheng took a few steps and tried his best to pull towards the gap in the courtyard wall. Unfortunately, he was just two or three palms away and couldn't catch it, so he slipped down again!
Upon seeing this, Fei Qian turned around and saw the water tank with almost bottomed water. He quickly asked someone to carry it over and put it under the gap in the backyard.
Huang Cheng took a few steps back, jumped up, put his foot on the bottom of the water tank, and finally hung on the gap in the courtyard wall, using his strength to climb up the wall!
Suddenly, everyone inside and outside the courtyard wall, including Feiqian, couldn't help but cheer loudly!
When Chen Junhou saw this, he roared angrily and swung his sword to slash without any regard for his own safety. He actually used the move of exchanging life for life! Huang Xu was caught off guard and was dodged left and right in a panic. He couldn't help but take a few steps back...
Seeing that Huang Xu had been forced back a little distance, Chen Junhou feinted with his sword, turned around, and led a few soldiers to rush towards the gap in the backyard wall. He raised his knife and slashed at several Cui family guards below the gap.
, trying to seize this gap and block Fei Qian and others back into the yard!
On the eve of the Battle of Chibi, when discussing the strategy of borrowing arrows, Lu Su asked Kong Ming: "I wonder how confident Mr. Zhuge is?"
Kong Ming replied: "10 points for giving grass, 0 points for not giving it."
Ahem...
One of the branches of the unfinished ending: Fei Qian was burned to death...
